Tourism In Playa Del Carmen
Mexico is the land of spicy, tongue burning food, drug lords, charming music, soccer and diversity. Mexico also happens to be the land that boasts of the serene Playa Del Carmen. Located in the state of Quintana Roo, Playa Del Carmen is one of four Riviera Maya getaways, by the Caribbean Sea. Originally a simple fishing settlement, it has grown to be a major tourist destination.
Named after the citys patron saint of Our Lady of Mount Caramel, the city was originally a rest stop for travelers heading to the island of Cozumel. However the clear white beaches, turquoise water and absolute tranquil of the hamlet, soon made it the ideal getaway. Even today, the city remains idyllic and peaceful, even though the rest of the world maybe embroiled in chaos. The citys municipality has made a conscious effort to retain the citys small town charm, by limiting the height of the citys buildings. The tallest building in the city is only 4 stories high.
